Don't Panic! STEEMIT CHAT is Up and Running: Here Are All the Official Details:

Yay! Steemit.Chat is back! What's next?
Good question. Over the coming weeks, we'll be working on what I've already discussed above. Changing and further developing new features for Steemit.Chat is on the horizon, but not here yet. We want to get everything stabilised and optimised, and then we will continue working on a few of our big upcoming projects. In the interim, if you have suggestions for Steemit.Chat, here are two links you'll want to know:

https://github.com/sciborg/Steemit-Chat This is a GIThub repo specific to Steemit.Chat.
https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat
And this is a GIThub repo for the overall client, which is open source.
You can also contact me, @followbtcnews, or witness partner @crimsonclad on Steemit.Chat or Discord. Both of us keep an eye on both places and are available to help or chat whenever you may need us.

Thanks for being patient with all the crazy stuff happening over the last few days. We're proud to be able to help keep this important component of our platform alive, as well as to be a part of the development of other important Steemian communities on Discord. The more places we have for witnesses, curators, creators, developers, and investors to work together for Steemit, the better.
Bringing together more Steemians to network, chat, make friends, and grow is one of our biggest goals. On behalf of Crimmi and myself, thanks for letting us be a part of your Steemit experience
